Really? Ireland doesn't have conscription; nor does France, Bulgaria, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Spain, The Netherlands...Iceland doesn't even have an army.

One of many joys in seeing them reunited is the utter delight on Suga's face when performing. He's happier than I ever remember him being.

👀 Gone to Specsavers with our Dundee SNP candidates, Heather Anderson and Stephen Gethins.

Scotland is the only part of the UK with free eye tests and the SNP will protect them.

We will also invest in more treatment in the community and give people faster, easier access to the care they need.

Best kisser? Ha Seok Jin in one of my all-time favourite romances 1% of Something - she's just come out of the shower and he's waiting to surprise her. I get shivers just thinking of it.😆

I got fed up complaining to the BBC, now I don't pay my licence fee and I don't watch their biased news. My updates on home and world affairs are garnered from several on-line independent news sources. I suggest others do the same.

Character: Choi Won Young in Family By Choice is quite the nicest, most sympathetic and understanding father/foster father in K-drama. He helps turn a charming series into a great one.

Day 21: where to start? I frequently rewatch dramas I've enjoyed (currently, Destined With You) alongside new productions. It's like revisiting an old friend.To pick just one it has to be 1% of Something - warm, comforting and with great chemistry, just like hot cocoa on a cold night.

Farage Breaches - Indy PosterBoy Did you know that Nigel Farage has committed 17 breaches of MP’s code of conduct, and failed to declare £333,000 in outside interests - 3x an MPs annual salary?

This sort of financial dishonesty seems normal for Reform, yet still people plan to vote for them 🤷‍♂️😳

Oil, arms, pharma, Israel: the cut welfare to fund war folks have interesting affiliations War hawks from Starmer to Streeting to ex-military blowhards have been loud lately - guess how many of them have links to oil, arms, & Israel

Agree, Reset is brilliant, but for my thriller I'm choosing the Korean drama Through the Darkness, a compelling story of criminals profilers.

Day 16 - Lee Seung Gi in Mouse. One of Korea's best actors in a disturbing police drama that stays in the memory long after the final dark scene has ended. I'm just off to watch it again...

Day 15: Time Travel - so many to choose from, but I love Mr Queen. Shin Hye Sun is one of my favourites, a wonderful actor whatever role she plays; and Kim Jung Hyun proves yet again that he is a master of comedy.

Here's the text from the Xitter post

I started watching it some years ago but gave up - PSJ was not the romantic figure of What's Wrong with Secretary Kim and Hwarang. Returned to it later and loved it and PSJ's simple sincerity.

The winners of Farage's energy bill prize look oddly familiar... People on social media have pointed out that the household who received Reform's lottery prize are longterm loyalists to Farage

Comedy? Has to be Welcome to Waikiki. Found Family? Hometown Cha Cha Cha has a warm and loving 'family' consisting of the whole community - although I'm not sure I'd appreciate the intense interest if I lived there.

Childhood connections is almost mandatory in K-drama, but from the many I'll choose What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, partly because of the performance by the then child actor Bae Gang Yoo who has successfully progressed to teen roles.

I usually steer clear of Zombies (both on screen and in real life!) but I watched Happiness because it was Park Hyung Sik's come-back series after the Military, and I enjoyed it. I have not sought out any Zombies since.

I'm not a big Song Joon Ki fan (good actor, baby face) but my Revenge choice is Reborn Rich. Strong story line, with a bit of fantasy thrown in, and a great cast.

A message for the media in Scotland.
A Labour MPs husband is accused of spying for China,his wife has inappropriate & drunken “flirtations” with not one but two submarine captains,there’s total blackout coverage of leaks into the Clyde and you think that’s ok & have a “nothing to see here” attitude?

Now that's great news 🗞️
